...my fish and relish dinner are very good.
After you answered, did the person call you by name, or what exactly did they say?
Fish and relish? I can't say that I've ever tried that.

People like you deserve to have their CCW yanked. What would have been your plan if you had arrived on the scene and this had been a real situation?
Possibly an attempt to get you to call 911, thus inducing swatting
Well, I tried.
Dang.
I think this needs to be investigated.
Have you started a paper trail with the Police?
What if the same caller had called 911 seven minutes earlier and reported that someone was coming to kill her?
For the harsh critics, lets keep in mind that he did think.
Caught off guard, his tendency was to accept the report at face value, as some of us might. When he saw the cop, he asked about 911. When the line went dead, rather than charge forward in a frantic panic to save his friend, he originated a call to who he thought had called him.
It all worked out.
There is a difference between critiquing and and harsh criticizism. Lets stick with the critique. This is how we learn--by sharing our experiences.
It was obviously a mobile phone. How many people does anyone here know that doesn't look to see who is calling? I know no one that doesn't. No way to post a link to verify and no way to disprove it either. Possible but not plausible.
What entrapment, for what reason? What actual trap, for what resason?
Sorry, 9, I call BS on this one.
Not saying it definitely is BS

Lol.
As for OP, jumping up to "respond" was a terrible idea in the first place. You should have called the police. I mean what were you expecting to do if this was not a trick? Go in, shoot the bad guys and rescue you friend? You should have never left the house, you especially should not have grabbed your gun to head to a possible active shooter/ hostage scene. If there were other LEOs on sight and an actual hostage situation was taking place, you may have been mistaken for a threat.
What were you thinking?
--Edit-- Also, if you saw the LEO and you still thought there was a hostage situation inside, why wouldn't flag down the LEO or again call them in the first place.
I guess we will never know if he won't share any details about the phone call.

If they didn't call the OP by name, my money is on a wrong number.
I used to have a phone number that was close to that of a local sports complex. People got confused all the time. Is your phone number similar to the police?
Open Carry is a right, and cannot be yanked. That sort of attitude makes me sick.
Open carry may be a right (although it's not in some states because you can't do it legally, thus it's not a right there).
But it's a "right" we can lose if gun owners do idiotic things, like grab their gun and "respond" to an incident like they are are a police officer. (instead of calling the police like a reasonable person would do)
I agree with you in principal, but in practice, go open carry in a place like NYC and see if the court upholds your right to open carry. If it's truly a right, they should.
